It's Taciturn Tuesday! (IMG INTENSIVE)

(because it's too early for Wordless Wednesday and I won't have time to post tomorrow :p)

A 1940's Mexican saddle from the Texas Ranger Museum in Waco, TX. (feel free to save to your reference folder)














A saddle with a rifle scabbard (sorry to say I didn't get a good shot of the info placard):





Another saddle with a ring set in the shoulder to hold the rifle scabbard:

Great pictures--those are definitely going in my reference file.

As usual, I'm struck by how *narrow* some of those old saddles are... Were horses really that skinny back then?
